Enterasys X-Pedition 8000/8600 Getting Started Guide 85
Installing a PCMCIA Flash Card
– The X-Pedition will boot up and the following messages will appear, indicating that the
PCMCIA flash card was installed successfully:
– The X-Pedition will start to boot up but stop after a few seconds, leaving the router in boot
mode. If the X-Pedition displays the “external flash card absent” message, the PCMCIA
flash card was not found and an image was not loaded. If this occurs, power off the
X-Pedition and verify that the PCMCIA flash card is properly installed (refer to steps 2 and
3). Power on the router—if the problem persists, contact Enterasys Technical Support (see
Technical Support on page125).
– The X-Pedition will start to boot up but stop after a few seconds, leaving the router in boot
mode. If the X-Pedition does not display the “external flash card absent” message, the
router did not find an image to load from the PCMCIA Flash Card. Please contact Enterasys
Technical Support for assistance (see Technical Support on page125).
Note: If you boot from a TFTP server and the system does not detect a PCMCIA card, the
“external flash card absent” message will appear. As the system firmware boots, the
%SYS-E-NOFLASHCARD message will also appear, indicating that the PCMCIA card is
not present or is not installed correctly. If this occurs, power off the X-Pedition and verify
that the PCMCIA flash card is properly installed (refer to steps 2 and 3). Power on the
router—if the problem persists, contact Enterasys Technical Support (see Techn ica l
Support on page 125).
